On sharp anisotropic Hardy inequalities (2411.12322v3)

Abstract: Recently, Yanyan Li and Xukai Yan showed the following interesting Hardy inequalities with anisotropic weights: Let $n\geq 2$, $p \geq 1$, $p\alpha > 1-n$, $p(\alpha + \beta)> -n$, then there exists $C > 0$ such that $$||x|^{\beta}|x'|^{\alpha+1} \nabla u|{L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)} \geq C||x|^\beta|x'|^\alpha u|{L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)}, \quad \forall\; u\in C_c^1(\mathbb{R}^n).$$ Here $x' = (x_1,\ldots, x_{n-1}, 0)$ for $x = (x_i) \in \mathbb{R}^n$. In this note, we will determine the best constant for the above estimate when $p=2$ or $\beta \geq 0$. Moreover, as refinement for very special case of Li-Yan's result in Adv. Math. 2023, we provide explicit estimate for the anisotropic $L^p$-Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality.
